Then Stella (Theron), a beautiful nerves-of-steel safecracker, joins Charlie and his former gang when they follow the backstabber to California. They plan to re-steal the gold by tapping into Los Angeles' traffic control system, manipulate the signals and create one of the biggest traffic jams in L.A. history. Now the job isn't the payoff -- it's about payback.
